Grandfather and Roo search for King Cod aboard the Unsinkable, which does not remain safely afloat and leaves them in a predicament.
Grandfather travels with Roo, whose finicky ways seem to change with the wind, while the pair face the expedition together.
The voyage includes bad luck, a vessel that fails to live up to its name and a predicament implied by the title. If peril feels vivid, pause to check how the child is finding it.
This is a grounded book brief while Suitabook strengthens the analysis: another book-specific source is still needed.
